Local police in La Orotava assisted a 42-year-old woman this Sunday who had serious difficulty breathing after choking while eating lunch. The agents managed to recover her by performing the Heimlich maneuver on her.
The events took place around 2:30 p.m., when a vehicle stopped in front of the Police Headquarters of the northern municipality with the woman in distress inside. The occupants of the car made that stop when they were transferring her to a health center, alerted because the woman could not breathe.
The reaction of the agents was immediate and they successfully managed to recover the woman, who was later transferred to a health center for evaluation.
